Mercy Mercy

Have mercy, have mercy, baby

Have mercy, have mercy on me

Well I went to see the gypsy

To have my fortune read she said man, your baby gonna

leave you

Her bags are packed up under the bed,

Thats right

Have mercy, have mercy, baby

Have mercy, have mercy on me

But if you leave me baby

Girl if you put me down

Im gonna make it to the nearest river child

And jump overboard and drown

Thats right

Have mercy, have mercy, baby

Have mercy, have mercy on me

I said hey hey baby, hey hey now

What you trying to do

Hey hey baby, hey hey now

Please dont say were through

Have mercy, have mercy, baby

Have mercy, have mercy on me

But if you stay baby

I tell you what Im gonna do

Im gonna work two jobs, seven days a week

And bring my money home to you

Thats right

Have mercy, have mercy, baby

Have mercy, have mercy on me

Yeah

Have mercy, have mercy, baby

Have mercy, have mercy on me
